ArmInfo.The mission of Russian peacekeepers in Nagorno- Karabakh is not an easy one. As reported by the press service of the Kremlin, the Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia stated this during a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin on the sidelines of the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok.
According to him, the current year was very important for the Armenian-Russian relations - not only in the context of anniversaries, but also within the framework of the CSTO, and in connection with bilateral relations. "Russia is the closest partner and strategic ally of the Republic of Armenia, and especially in these difficult times, constant contact and reconciliation of positions are very important," he stressed.
Pashinyan noted the mission of Russian peacekeepers in Nagorno-Karabakh. "It must be admitted that this is not an easy mission, we have repeatedly spoken about this, and we highly appreciate the activities of Russian peacekeepers in Nagorno-Karabakh, in the Lachin corridor. And I think this is very important to emphasize. In general, in terms of ensuring security in Nagorno-Karabakh, there are nuances that we always discuss, and I think it would be very useful to discuss these issues today as well," the Armenian prime minister emphasized.
Touching upon the issues of trade and economic relations, Nikol Pashinyan expressed satisfaction with the fact that in the post-pandemic period these relations have not only recovered, but also have some new positive development. "Of course, the agenda of our relations is veryintense, and I am sure that today we will also have a meaningful, comprehensive conversation," he concluded.
